crinums in bloom

Thanks Jim,
I live in zone 6B, about 60 miles due west of Philadelphia but I overwinter
the pots in an unheated greenhouse. I am starting to plant some out in a
field this year for the first time. My Super Ellen has produced very few
seed over the years, but this could be one of them.
Or it could be a migrating tag. I have occasional helpers re-potting and
they don't always pick up the same tag they lay down - a source of great
frustration.

Tim,

Not knowing where you live, I can't tell for sure as some of these
are not hardy every where. As I understand ’Super Ellen’ is not self
fertile and my plant in Kansas City has grown here for over a decade and
never produced a seed even with hand pollination attempts.

I suspect you live in a mild climate if you grow this in an above
ground pot so that’s the end of my guesses. It is however very beautiful.

Here is an unknown hybrid where the first half of the tag was destroyed and
the second half said "X Herbertii".
I suspect it is SuperEllen x Herbertii or SuperEllen x self. Maybe Eagle
Rock x Herbertii?
I would appreciate any opinions..
